• Add aEncrypted Note (Red Writing) Hints:

    1. Look at the playing cards photo.
    2. Notice that only the hearts and diamond cards have letters written on them. Each heart or diamond card maps to a specific letter in the alphabet.
    3. If the ace of hearts equals A and the ace of diamonds equals D, then the two of hearts is B and the two of diamonds is C.
    4. Solution: Alternate between hearts and diamonds, starting with hearts. The decrypted note reads: He’s a liar and a backstabber. Won’t own up. I’m going to make him feel as helpless as he made me.

    4. Solution: Use a cipher with two keys: shift every first letter 8 letters backward and every second letter 9 letters backward. The decrypted message reads “it’s done.”
